She's Dreaming

She would stand around and greet people with welcome, almost clear of nerves and worries. She would talk with them about their interests, and introduce them to the book. She would sit at a table with posters and things surrounding her, piles of books being passed through, pen in hand, each copy being signed with a loopy signature that was her own. She would smile and laugh and ask how to spell their name, then make lots of fans and friends and sales. The day would go well and make her happy, and things would be great as she worked on the sequels... Ah, to dream.
